Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has maintained that Atiku Abubakar would have done better than President Muhammadu Buhari if given the opportunity.
In an interview on BBC Yoruba, Obasanjo stated that though Atiku was not a messiah, he was twice better than Buhari.
According to the former Nigeria leader, if Buhari administration was probed most of its officials will go to hell.
Obasanjo said: “What I am saying is that where we are today, our present situation, if you look at those who are there today and our boss, I insist that Atiku will do better than them. Atiku is not an angel, he had offended people including me but he asked for forgiveness and I forgave him due to my religion.
“As a Christain, the God I serve said forgive those who offend you and I did just that. So when he came to me with a Christain and Muslim clergy, begging that I forgive. should I refuse when I’m not God?
“I did not say his past behaviour was not bad but none of us is complete and whoever feels his complete should come out but what I’m saying is that where we are today Atiku will do better than them if he was given the chance.
“This is not a prophecy. Those in government today, if we expose them, all of them will enter hell; they will not only go to jail. They will go to hell. Whoever that God does not expose his sins to the public is the person whose secret is kept.
“I did not say he will behave like Jesus. I did not say he will behave like Prophet Muhammed, but he will do better, in fact twice better than what we have at present.”
